I have ordered from Barnes and Noble in the US and also from platesplus4kids.com and I haven't had to pay duty.
I think Discount school supply could make good money of they would sell the canadian daycares They have tons of great craft stuff for cheap and learning resources too
So, I went on this orientaltrading site. ordered $150 worth of stuff. They said 3-5 day shipping was $22.99. then I continued to process the order and this shipping suddenly jumped to $60!!!!!! so disappointed!!!!!! Didn't buy anything
I am opening a new daycare shortly and need to buy tables and chairs for two playrooms. Can anyone suggest a good, reasonably priced source? I am in Calgary.
Spixie.... Whereabouts in Ontario are you? Theres a company called US Address in Niagara Falls New York who I have used for years where you can have items delivered to for a very small charge. The first week is $5 and $1 per week thereafter unless it is an item which weighs an obscene amount. I live 20 minutes from the border and drive over all the time and that way I save on the additinal shipping into Canada. Canada Revenue has just increased the daily limit for tax free items coming in which is also handy, but I have only ever had to pay tax on a couple of things and I factor this money in when I work out whether it will end up being cheaper if I buy it from the US vs Canada Feel free to message me for more info

I am going to message you for more details. I was getting worried I would have to move to get a cheap depot like in SK and MB. lol
Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
